[QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 1894816, member: 27"]
Where to start?  In recent years, SU has had 4 players from Oak Hill:  Billy Edelin, Carmelo Anthony, Eric Devendorf and Baye Moussa Keita.

Edelin and Anthony were from Baltimore, which is south of the Mason-Dixon Line and certainly not from the Northeast.

Devendorf was from Bay CIty Michigan.  Again, not from the Northeast.

BMK was from Senegal.  Senegal is in Africa.  Again, not from the Northeast.  So his claim that all the players SU took from Oak Hill are from the Northeast is just wrong.

He also says SU has taken three players from outside the Northeast in the past 10 years, and 2 left the team.

One is surely Ron Patterson.  Another is surely Deshonte Riley.  He missed Sean Williams, who also transferred.  Maybe Fab Melo is the one player from outside the Northeast who did not transfer out.  There is also the already mentioned Eric Devendorf.  Arinze Onuaku was from VIrginia.  You have to count him.  And I think you have to consider Mike Gbinjie,Wes Johnson and Kristof too (transfers).  Virginia, Texas and Belgium are not located in the Northeast US.  Andrew White, another Virginian, joins them now.

So his facts are basically all wrong...
